Chapter 130 I don’t want to run away!
Suddenly, Lin Xiaoyue remembered the first time she went to Jueweilou. At that time, she didn’t know that the owner of Jueweilou was Liang Jingyao. Liang Jingyao recognized her and sent a carrier pigeon.
According to Shopkeeper Wang, this carrier pigeon can find Liang Jingyao. Why not first ask Zhan Liang how to send the letter?
Lin Xiaoyue put her hand under the quilt and took out the carrier pigeon she had hidden earlier from the space, "Yunyun, quickly call Zhan Liang in!"
Chen Yunyun walked to the next room without looking at Zhan Liang, and then went to the yard to ask the old wine freak. Finally, when she walked to the kitchen, Zhan Liang had quickly finished a steamed bun and a bowl of porridge.
"Zhan Liang, Sister Lin wants you to come in." Chen Yunyun said standing at the door.
Zhan Liang knew that Lin Xiaoyue must have come to find him because her master had not returned yet.
He nodded and replied, "Okay! I'll be there now!"
Inside the pharmacy, Lin Xiaoyue saw Zhan Liang come in. She immediately took out a carrier pigeon and asked, "Zhan Liang, can this carrier pigeon help me find Brother Liang?"
Zhan Liang took the carrier pigeon in his hand and looked at it. When he saw the golden ring on the pigeon's leg, he was shocked!
This is a carrier pigeon that can only be owned by the master's legally married wife, because only this carrier pigeon can accurately find the master's location!
He said excitedly, "Sure! If it can't be found, then it's even more impossible for others to find it! Miss Lin, what message do you want to bring to the master? I'll write it for you!"
Lin Xiaoyue felt that if she stuffed a note in the bag, people would find out and throw it away, so it would be better to put something else in it!
She thought for a moment and said, "Go ask my father for a piece of angelica. Brother Liang will understand what I mean when he sees it. It's best to put a few life-saving pills in a hidden place, just in case Brother Liang needs them."
Zhan Liang felt that this was the only solution at this point, so he replied, "Yes, I'll do it right away!"
With that, he walked out of the pharmacy.
Standing in the yard, Zhan Liang showed the pigeon in his hand to Jiu Laoguai, "This is given to me by Miss Lin. She wants to use this pigeon to find her master."
The drunkard knew the rules of Prince Rong's mansion well. Liang Jingyao gave such an important carrier pigeon to the girl privately. It seemed that he had to marry the girl. He didn't know whether Prince Rong would make things difficult for the girl of low status in the future?
He pressed his solar plexus with a headache and asked, "Did the girl say anything?"
Zhan Liang replied, "Miss Lin said to put a piece of angelica, and the master will understand after seeing it. Then Miss Lin asked me to ask you, is there any life-saving elixir that can be hidden so that no one can find it?"
What else doesn't the drunkard understand? The girl was afraid that someone would intercept the pigeon, so she didn't want to slip in the note.
"Wait here for me, I'll go look for it." The drunkard stood up and walked towards the pharmacy.
The medicines in the pharmacy are all made by Jiu Laoguai himself. He has too much free time here, so he makes a few pills when he feels like it. He has made quite a few over the years, but it is a bit of a headache for him to find them now.
Seeing the old wine freak rummaging through boxes and cabinets, Lin Xiaoyue asked in surprise, "Dad, what are you doing?"
The drunkard scratched his head embarrassedly, not daring to look back at Lin Xiaoyue. "Well, your father has been so devoted to research over the years that he has forgotten to eat and sleep, so I am now looking for my special medicine."
Lin Xiaoyue held back her laughter. Dad said so much, but he just forgot where he put it.
"Dad, think carefully about what that medicine looks like. Does it have a strange smell? Is it black or another color? I'll ask Yunyun to help you find it."
After being reminded by Lin Xiaoyue, the drunkard found a box in the bottom cabinet. "I found it! You're really smart, girl! I'll give it to Zhan Liang now!"
Outside the pharmacy, Zhan Liang saw the drunkard come out. He quickly walked up to him and asked, "How's it going? Did you find it?"
The drunkard nodded, opened the box, and revealed two black worms. He hid the worms under the feathers of the carrier pigeon, then took out a piece of angelica, tore it into a thin strip, and tied it to the pigeon's leg.
"This is a special medicinal insect I made. It can save lives in times of crisis! No one else knows about it. I only mentioned it to Jing Yao. Unfortunately, there are only two of them. This thing is really hard to make!"
Zhan Liang knew that the drunkard must have taken out his most precious treasure. He opened his hands, and the pigeon was free and immediately spread its wings and flew into the sky.
Under the cliff outside the capital, Liang Jingyao was stabbed in the abdomen and had been unconscious for a whole night. Only the scarred Gu Mian was by his side. Zhan Hu was hit in the chest by an arrow and also lost consciousness.
What on earth happened?
The story begins when Liang Jingyao left the old drunkard's yard. After checking that the teahouse and the restaurant opposite were fine, he rode his horse as fast as he could to the capital.
The capital city is very strange tonight. It is curfew time, but the gate at the city entrance is still open, and there is not a single guard!
Liang Jingyao became alert. It seemed that Emperor Liang was a bit smart and had set a trap for him here!
But Gu Mian and he are close friends, and the Gu family is very important, so he must go to help the Gu family!
At this time, the Gu family was already in chaos, because Emperor Liang suddenly issued an imperial decree, forcing a trumped-up charge upon the Gu family. The entire family would face execution unless they could reveal where Liang Jingyao was.
Emperor Liang only gave them one night to think about it, but the Gu family cried and made a fuss, and some people had already fled when disaster struck!
The once glorious century-old imperial merchant Gu family is about to come to an end!
In the large study, there were three men sitting there: the old man Gu Hao, the current head of the Gu family Gu Wei, and Gu Mian.
Gu Mian was in the most difficult situation. It was difficult for him to choose between his brothers and his family! He would never be able to forgive himself if he betrayed anyone!
"Grandfather, is there any other way? When the late emperor was alive, Prince Rong spoke well of us. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to dominate the country forever! They have been so kind to us!"
Gu Wei disapproved and said, "Gu Mian, you are not just a surname of Gu, you are also the next head of the family. You can't disregard the lives of everyone in the family!"
Gu Mian clenched his fists tightly. He understood what his father said even without him saying it. But, would Emperor Liang let the Gu family go if he betrayed Jing Yao? As long as Emperor Liang sat on the throne, this day would come!
"Grandfather, what do you say?"
Gu Hao returned to the study and pulled out a small wooden box from a hidden compartment. He waved at Gu Mian and said, "The Gu family is doomed. Emperor Liang is just looking for an excuse to deal with us! Ah Mian, this box is the lifeblood of our Gu family. It's more important than any money or store! Take this and run for your life!"
Gu Mian was unwilling to take the box. He didn't want to be a deserter. He didn't believe that there was no other way!
"Grandfather, please don't do this. Our Gu family is not at the end of the road yet. I don't want to run away. I want to be with you!"
At this moment, someone broke in through the window, covered Gu Mian's mouth and warned him, "Don't scream!"
